Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations cover the safety profile (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=false). The description adds genuinely new context: it records the task only and never personal data, which tells the agent what is transmitted and the privacy constraint. It stops short of saying who receives it or whether submission is anonymous.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences, zero waste, with the action front-loaded and the privacy guarantee second. Nothing redundant or padded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, so return values need not be explained. Purpose, trigger, and data-handling are covered. The only meaningful gap is routing versus send_to_newsroom, which would make the definition fully self-sufficient.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so both parameters (task, description) are already documented with examples and constraints in the schema. The description adds no field-level meaning beyond that, so baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb+resource: reporting a task a reader wanted but the server, site, or API could not do. It is clearly a feedback/gap-report tool, not a data fetch. It doesn't explicitly contrast with the closest sibling send_to_newsroom, so an agent must infer the boundary.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Usage is implied by the trigger condition (a task could not be done), which is reasonably clear context. But there is no explicit when-not-to-use and no named alternative, even though send_to_newsroom exists and could plausibly be confused with this.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
